1.Getting to future talent early

Want to speak to future talent, before they make life changing decisions, but don’t know how?

Students are making decisions about their future careers earlier than ever, with some taking GCSE options at the age of 12 - yes 12!

Influences come in the shape of parents, teachers, friends, relations and social media.

Aimed at business and industry this workshop will help you to create a new relationship with schools, colleges and young people.

The session will help you understand more about:

  • The current educational landscape (Jargon and Myth busting)

  • How to use the National Curriculum and Gatsby Benchmarks to your advantage

  • How different schools are structured and run (Multi Academy Trusts covered)

  • Who the key opinion leaders and decision makers are, and how to get to them

  • The different approaches to careers guidance and support structures in place

  • What works, and what definitely doesn’t, when talking to students and teachers

  • What kinds of talks/support to offer the staff & students

  • How to do it all with minimal stress and effort for everyone

2.Personal Skills at FE/HE

45% of graduates don’t feel prepared for work

80% of companies say graduates are not ready for work

Employability outcomes are key to student recruitment and funding, but graduates are not leaving with the right personal skills to get them ahead of the competition, when applying for jobs. Simply writing a good CV is not enough!

Aimed at helping course/faculty leaders and lecturers identify where and how they can embed personal/employability/soft skills into their curriculum plans and pedagogy, without having to rewrite course content or drop something else.

The session will:

  • Outline the depth of the skills issues across the UK economy

  • Highlight the dangers for your institution of not doing anything

  • Investigate the impact of the National Student Survey

  • Challenge the traditional motivations for going to college or university

  • Unpick how and why students are choosing which institutions to study at

  • Identify the most sought after skills by employers (Personal vs Technical)

  • Link skills development to your current curriculum delivery

  • Suggest how to get the students to do all the work

Prices start at £500 depending on numbers, length and in-person/on-line
